I have a Vintique 40 wheel on my F1. Looked nice until last winter when the outer ring cracked in the middle and a gap appeared. Now that it is cracked I can see that the inner metal ring is separated from the outer plastic or the plastic shrunk away from the metal. So the plastic ring moves and is annoying when going around a corner and my hand gets scratched when it finds the edge of the plastic at the gap. To fix it the inner metal ring needs to be secured to the outer plastic before filling the gap. Ugh
